Loom true cost: the 36-month total
Loom costs $5,400 over 36 months on Business at 10 members, billed annually, before 5 cost lines that sit outside the plan price.
What Loom costs over 36 months
Every figure below is Loom's own published rate, annualised and multiplied out over 36 months at 10 members. Where Loom publishes no rate, the row says so instead of guessing.
Billing Loom monthly instead of annually costs $180 a month rather than $150, a difference of $1,080 across the 36 months. That is the single largest lever on this page that costs nothing to pull.
The same plan at four team sizes
Loom charges per member, so the 36-month figure scales linearly with headcount. These are Business totals, on annual billing, with no fees added.
1 tier is sales-led (Enterprise), so it carries no figure here.
Renewal sensitivity: three scenarios, not a forecast
Nobody knows what Loom charges in 2029. The table below is arithmetic on a rate you choose, not a prediction: it compounds the year-one total forward at 0%, 5% and 10% so you can see how much of the 36-month figure is exposed to a renewal you have not negotiated yet.
Scenario arithmetic on Loom's own published year-one figure. Uplift rates are illustrative inputs, not observed or predicted rates.
What sits outside the Loom list price
5 lines, sorted by when in the contract lifecycle they land. Lines marked as derived are arithmetic on Loom's own tier table rather than vendor prose.
Each line, what triggers it, and how to avoid it
Infrastructure and hosting
Stated on the pricing page: AI tier choice, Atlassian bundle, storage, and enterprise controls can change the final price.
What triggers it. Triggered by data volume and deployment shape. Choosing self-hosted or a dedicated region moves this from a rounding error to a material share of the term cost.
How to avoid it. Set retention and archival policy before go-live. Storage you never agreed to keep is the single most avoidable line on this page.
Contract and commitment terms
Derived from the published tiers: Loom Business is $180 a month billed monthly against $150 on annual commitment, a $1,080 difference over 36 months at 10 members.
What triggers it. Contract mechanics rather than a fee. They decide whether the $5,400 total is locked, and how expensive changing your mind in month 14 turns out to be.
How to avoid it. Negotiate the exit, not just the entry: termination for convenience, a downgrade path, and what happens to prepaid money. Those clauses cost nothing at signature and everything later.
Unpublished pricing
Derived from the published tiers: 1 of 4 Loom tiers publish no price (Enterprise). No total on this page includes them.
What triggers it. Opacity rather than expense. It may cost nothing; the point is that neither you nor this page can currently tell, and a three-year commitment deserves better than that.
How to avoid it. Treat the unpublished element as a risk line in the business case with an explicit assumed value. A named assumption can be challenged; a gap cannot.
Trial and free-tier conversion
Derived from the published tiers: Loom publishes a free tier. Every 36-month figure above starts from the month you leave it, not from signup.
What triggers it. Triggered by the trial expiring or a free-tier limit being crossed. The $5,400 figure above starts counting from that moment, not from signature.
How to avoid it. Use the trial to test the limits you will actually hit, not the features that demo well. Where the free tier stops tells you what your real Loom tier is.
Seat expansion
Derived from the published tiers: Five more members on Business add $2,700 across 36 months, on top of the $5,400 above.
What triggers it. Growth is the trigger. Because Loom bills on a workspace member pricing, adding people mid-term adds cost on the original rate card, not on whatever you negotiated once.
How to avoid it. Get expansion pricing fixed in the order form for the full term. Without it, seats added in month 20 are quoted at list.
How that compares across sales engagement and outbound tools
The median sales engagement and outbound tools tool we track charges $27 a month at its cheapest paid tier. Re-expressed on the same basis as the figure above, 10 members for 36 months, that median works out at $9,720.
Loom lands $4,320 below that figure, 44.4%, measured across 31 tracked tools. A gap either way is a question, not a verdict: cheaper often means fewer included seats or a thinner support tier, and the fee lines below are where that difference usually reappears.
What changes at enterprise scale
Everything above prices the self-serve ladder. Enterprise sits off that ladder, which means the $5,400 figure is a floor for a large deployment rather than an estimate of one.
Business + AI is the benchmark if AI summaries and workflows are a core reason to buy.
Frequently asked questions
How much does Loom cost over three years?
$5,400 on Business at 10 members, billed annually, which is $150 a month held flat for 36 months. That figure covers the subscription only.
Does paying Loom annually save money?
Yes. Monthly billing costs $180 a month against $150 on annual commitment, a difference of $1,080 over 36 months at 10 members.
What does Loom charge for outside the plan price?
5 lines: infrastructure and hosting, contract and commitment terms, unpublished pricing, trial and free-tier conversion and 1 more. Each one is broken down above with what triggers it and how to avoid it.
Could Loom cost more at renewal?
Possibly, and nothing on this page predicts it. If the rate held flat the three-year total would be $5,400; at a hypothetical 10% a year it would be $5,958. Cap the uplift in the contract and the question stops mattering.
What does Loom cost for a team of 25?
$13,500 over 36 months on Business, billed annually. Loom charges per member, so that scales directly with headcount.
